Bacon and Chive Potato Salad

I think if I had to, I could easily live off potato salad and bacon, for the rest of my life. Nothing more.

I do have to be careful because Potato salad goes straight to my hips and thighs, but goodness, I can't help it, it's like a plate of joy that needs to be inhaled.

This Potato salad is pretty basic, the only thing that makes it different is the addition of crumbled bacon and some fresh chives. You can use the bacon bits too but I don't like those, I call them fake bacon because they can't hold a candle to the real thing, but they do certainly work in a pinch.

Bacon and Chive Potato Salad

Place potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Drain and cool. Cut into smaller chunks.

Add bacon and chives, mayonnaise, mustard, salt and pepper and stir well to combine. Some don't like broken up potatoes and mushy salad....I do, so when I stir I really am not looking to keep the potatoes in one piece.

If you are, then just mix the mayo, mustard, salt and pepper in a separate bowl before adding to the rest, then stir gently to combine.
